What is speed of a particle?

Physics

Galina-37 [17]3 years ago

The speed of a particle is the instantaneous rate at which its distance of travel
is changing.

Over any finite period of time, its speed is:

               (distance traveled) / (time to travel the distance).

The direction of travel is irrelevant to a description of speed.

You drop a rock from rest from the top of a tall building.1)how far has the rock fallen in 2.60 s?
Bess [88]
Answer:
distance = 33.124 meters

Explanation:
To solve this question, we will use one of the equations of motion which is:
s = ut + 0.5a * t^2
where:
s is the distance that we want to get
u is the initial velocity = 0
a is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2
t is the time = 2.6 sec

Substitute with the givens in the equation to get the distance as follows:
s = ut + 0.5a * t^2
s = (0)(2.6) + 0.5(9.8)(2.6)^2
s = 33.124 meters

Hope this helps :)

In the aftermath of an intense earthquake, the earth as a whole "rings" with a period of 54 minutes.
lawyer [7]

The frequency of the oscillation in hertz is calculated to be 0.00031 Hz.

The frequency of a wave is defined as the number of cycles completed per second while the period refers to the time taken to complete a cycle. The frequency is the inverse of period.

So;

Period(T) = 54 minutes or 3240 seconds

Frequency (f) = T-1 = 1/T = 1/3240 seconds = 0.00031 Hz

an object 24.0 cm from a concave mirror creates a virtual image at -33.5 cm. if the image is 7.25 cm tall, what is the height of
Hitman42 [59]

The height of the object will be -5.19 cm

A concave mirror's reflecting surface curves inward and away from the light source. Light is reflected inward to a single focus point via concave mirrors. Concave mirrors, in contrast to convex mirrors, produce a variety of images depending on the object's to the mirror.

Given an object 24.0 cm from a concave mirror creates a virtual image at -33.5 cm. if the image is 7.25 cm tall

So let,

v =  Image distance from the mirror = -33.5 cm

u = object distance from the mirror (concave) = 24 cm

hi = Image height = 7.25 cm

h = height of the object = ?

Using below formula to find height of the object

-v/u = hi/h

Putting all value in the formula we get

-(-33.5)/(-24) = 7.25/h

h = -5.19 cm

Therefore the height of the object will be -5.19 cm

a 28.7 KG sled is pulled forward with a 63 net force across the ground with MK equals 0.169 what is the acceleration of the sled
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

0.54\ \text{m/s}^2

Explanation:

F = Force on the sled = 63 N

m = Mass of sled = 28.7 kg

\mu_k = Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.169

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

The force balance of the system is given by

F-\mu_k mg=ma\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{F-\mu_k mg}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{63-0.169\times 28.7\times 9.81}{28.7}\\\Rightarrow a=0.54\ \text{m/s}^2

The acceleration of the sled is 0.54\ \text{m/s}^2.
